On Substack a lot of popular Notes are about writing on Substack (let’s call them Meta), while other Notes are “cleverly” commenting on the number of Notes about writing on Substack (Meta Squared). So here you have your first Meta Cubed Note. Only for big-brained Substackers.

Ah yes… Substack is the awkward, curly-haired ginger among social networks. A beautiful nerd worth protecting:

• Substack is a platform that encourages more than 10,000 characters

• It made email great again

• It pissed off both Elon Musk and Rachel Maddow

• You can log in using an email code, and they don’t pester you with 2FA. This is bliss.

The Notes algorithm is clearly in its baby steps and likes to hear its own name, but to use cringe crypto lingo: You’re early!
